A Little Longer - Mattheo Riddle X GN!Reader

A/N: OH MY GOODNESS ME. Sorry I've taken such a long break from writing, if I told you all the things that have happened in the past two months you honestly wouldn't believe me LMAO

Warnings: cursing, yelling, soft Mattheo I think? lmk if i missed anything xxx 

Note! I tried to make this as gender neutral as possible, if I've messed up anywhere, please feel free to correct me! But please do it nicely guys <3

The wind nipped at your face, chilly and biting as you wrapped your scarf tighter around your face. You forced your eyes to look into the swirling sky, where your poor boyfriend, Mattheo, sat frozen to his broom. 

Watching house Quidditch games was the highlight of every month for Hogwarts, but it made it supremely less enjoyable when the weather was unpleasant. And, as a particularly dark cloud decided to let fall a rainstorm, it became decidedly worse.

You craned your neck back to watch him above you, barely hearing whispers of what he was saying as he yelled instructions to his team members. 

Mattheo had been pushing the team hard all season - it being his first year as captain, he did not want to disappoint. You rememered the long suffering look Enzo gave you in the common room when Mattheo was dragging your friends out to train at 7am. 

As you watched, Astoria flew over your head, flanked by two Gryffindor chasers, who managed to throw her off, causing her to drop the Quaffle. She swore, sighing as they sped up towards the Slytherin goalpost before giving chase, but not quick enough to reclaim the Quaffle before another goal was put through the post, making the score 20 - 230 

You noticed Mattheo's expression darken further, and sighed. He would likely be in a bad mood later. 

Your eye was then caught by a sudden burst of movement on the other side of the pitch, where Potter and Draco were neck and neck in a dive for the Snitch. 

Draco raised his hand, victorious with the snitch clutched in his hand, yet the Gryffindor end exploded in cheers. With the score now at 170 - 230, Gryffindor had still won by a large margin. 

The Slytherins around you were all sighing and shaking their heads as they all made their  way out of the stadium. You had agreed to meet Mattheo at the Slytherin locker room, so you made your way there.

 As you approached the door though, you heard yelling. Pushing it slightly ajar, Blaise caught your eye and mimed cutting his head off quickly, clealy telling you to leave. You nodded, leaving swiftly and heading back to your empty dorm. 

About 45 minutes later, Mattheo turned up in your dorm, hair slightly damp from the shower, and, spotting you, promptly came over and lay his head in your lap. 

"Heya bubs." You smiled slightly, looking down at him. "Hey." He mumbled dejectedly.

"We lost." He groaned, messing up his curls. You lifted a hand and started gently playing with them. "Yeah, this time. But there are still going to be other games, you don't lose everything from this game, okay?" You replied soothingly. 

"But it was our first game, my first game as captain, and I blew it. I pushed them too hard, and I blew it." He sighed. "I wanted to win this for them, to prove that I could do this, be responsible, make it work. And it just..." He lifted a hand and let it drop onto your sheets. "I failed them, and it's not even their fault. I yelled at Draco for catching the snitch, even though that was the best thing to do..." 

"You didn't fail your team." You interrupted him. "Sure, you lost a game, Mattheo, but all captains lose games! It's part of playing, you make mistakes, and you learn from them. PLus, you guys were playing into the wind, the Gryffindors had the weather behind them. Now, if you wanna say that the weather is your fault, you're gonna start sounding a little self centered..." You giggled slightly, and an amused huff escaped Mattheo. 

"Yeah yeah, okay, I get it." The pressure lifted off your thighs as Mattheo moved to sit back against your pillows, opening his arms for you. "C'mere sweetheart, wanna hold you, please." He asked, giving you puppy eyes. 

You immediately caved and moved forward towards him, letting him cuddle you like a teddy bear. 

"Thank you."  He sighed after a few moments of holding you, drawing patterns on your back with a fingertip. "What for, silly?" You looked at him, confused. He chuckled slightly. 

"Grounding me, not thinking I'm a dick, just being an all round awesome person to date?" He shrugged. "For letting me rant about this shit." He squeezed you slightly. 

"No worries, idiot." You smiled, kissing his cheek. He gasped in mock horror. 

"Idiot? That's what you call your suffering boyfriend? WOW, okay, WOW, I see how it is." Mattheo mock glared at you, gently shoving you away. 

"Aw come on, don't be like that." You laughed slightly as he pulled you back into his arms. 

"I should go apologise for being a Class A dick to the team shouldn't I?" He sighed, looking at you. 

"Yeah, probably." You nodded, squeezing his hand. Hd pulled you a little closer. 

"Not yet though. Wanna keep holding you just a little longer..." He muttered, pulling you back into the nest of pillows with him.

A/N: Writing was shit, may delete later <3 Sorry for this miserable attempt at feeding u hungry people, love you all!

pinterest showed me some screenshots of posts that gave me the concept for an au where both harry and ron are sorted slytherin & draco is just slightly less rude in the first book. i could go into why i think this makes a lot of sense for ron but i won't. i've affectionately dubbed them the platinum quartet in my head and they will not leave me the fuck alone

[daddiesdrarryy]

Hermione: Where have you been, Harry?

Harry: Just, you know, busy

Ron: Doing what?

Harry: Draco

[mattyriddlesbitch]

what do you think it would be like to be friends with benefits with the boys?

Draco would be the type to buy you lingerie and outfits and tell you to wear them for him. You only ever use his dorm/place. He'll be calling you over when he needs a distraction or release stress. If you ask him to fuck, he's making you do all the work for interrupting him, but really he just likes seeing you on top of him, desperately using him to get off. Would let you spend the night, he likes sleeping next to someone.

I don't think Tom would do a fwb thing, but if he did, it's pretty similar to Draco, only his dorm, hitting you up at odd hours, and if you initiate, you're doing all the work. Spending the night is 50-50 to me. I think it depends on how exhausted he is. If he is, he'll let you soend the night, but if he's still up doing something else, I think he'd try getting you to leave. Obviously not instantly, but he'd let you shower if you want and all that.

Mattheo would be the type to do it whenever, wherever you want. If he's busy, he's either rushing to finish whatever he's doing or just dropping it completely. Man's horny, what can I say? He gives me such big cuddler vibes, I think he'd force you to stay the night or, at the very least, cuddle him for like 30 min. Also the type to try to steal your panties and plays dumb if you find his little stash.

Theodore would be pretty similar to Mattheo in my opinion. Whenever, wherever, stopping what he's doing. Would also buy you lingerie just to rip off later. I see him as a big cuddler too, but I don't think he'd force you. If you have to leave, he'd let you, but not without a complaint from him.

Lorenzo would be the one hitting you up all the time. Would do quickies in the broom closet or fucking you until you nearly pass out depending on how much time you have. I see him as pretty neutral if you spend the night or not. He'd be fine either way, he understands this is a sexual exchange and not like you're dating.

Blaise is the type to hit you up late at night. Regular fuckboy style with the "you up?" text too just because he knows it annoys you. Very sweet though. He's always making sure you're enjoying it. Clings to you afterwards so if you wanna leave, you need to wait for him to fall asleep or beg him, if he doesn't sleep.

YEAR 3!!! WE ARE IN YEAR 3!!

for "head over heels" by @dracoispookie you all Simply must Read it

i love loooove slow burn... and pining draco is such a cutie, too bad he has to grow up in a world of um. pureblood supremacy and tom hyung.

but also im sooo excited for the tonal shifts gof and beyond brings...!!

[frm9pm]

[substellaris]

Hey, you should draw Harry and Draco, but, like, a couple. I think that would be cute.

I do it all the time, i never get bored of them

[lilbeanz]

Not really an ask, more of a personal observation but I love how Draco likes to feel tall at all times 😭😭 he keeps standing on tables and from the recent promo art of book 5 he's wearing HEELS

Like damn boy you're already tall af no need to add those extra inches 😭 Harry's gonna have to physically turn his head up to look at Draco by the end of JODT ☠️

Omg how did you know that was my master plan all along?????😳

[iamnmbr3]

in first book ollivander says you can't get a result with another wizard's wand as good as you get with yours

But harry gets with draco's wand even if he never disarmed him, wonder why....

Oh, got it.

JK Rowling: I hate drarry with my whole heart and soul

Draco’s wand: … yeah sorry it’s canon. They’re soulmates in love.

no, but really I will never ever be over the wand plotline from book 7. Harry straight up took the wand out of Draco’s hand. They were both holding onto it at one point. Draco could’ve shot a spell at him, but he didn’t. He let him have it And we know Draco has good reflexes because he was almost as good a seeker as Harry and when they duel in book 6, he was actually able to hold his own against Harry longer than any other character ever except Snape and even fast enough to block a nonverbal spell from him. Harry got the wand because part of Draco wanted him to have it.

So that’s part of why it works so well for him but the other factor - which makes me even more unhinged with drarry feels - is their incredible compatibility. Even Hermione’s wand - willingly given to him and thus functional - does not work as well for Harry. It works because Hermione wants it to and because she and Harry are compatible and friends and care about each other. But it doesn’t work perfectly because they aren’t soulmates.

The way the wand feels friendly in his hand even though it’s canonically a particularly complex and difficult to master wand!!!! Ahhhhh!!! THE DRARRY OF IT ALL. We see it throughout the books - they just intuitively understand each other. And care about each other either when they shouldn’t. And the wand’s behavior reflects that. They’re soulmates your honor.

[sitp-recs]

hi! do you happen to have any drarry recs where draco just gets harry? like even if he doesn't say anything, maybe reading his body language, his facial expressions or just simply knowing him so well? and harry being relieved he doesn't need to say much because draco just gets him? sorry if this seems confusing hope i articulated myself well enough, its not my first language...

Hi there! That’s a great ask - I’ve read this theme being explored in a few different ways so I went a bit wild here, I hope all of these work for you:

Begin As You Mean To Go On by @doubleappled (E, 3k)

The first time, it was an accident. The second time, Harry’s going to have to ask.

A Little Death Never Hurt Anyone by @tackytigerfic (E, 4k)

Harry's getting good at slipping through the Veil. He's determined to win the war, even if means he has to raise the dead to do it. Draco just wants a stiff drink and a good night's sleep.

Life goes not backward by @shealwaysreads (T, 9k)

Harry still isn’t used to gifts, but this one is different. A story of coming home, finding safe ground, and the wild courage of putting down roots.

Wield Me by @tackytigerfic (E, 10k)

Draco Malfoy, blacksmith, is renowned through the magical world for his skill and exquisite creations. He could quite easily spend the rest of his days making pretty trinkets for the fae court, and being handsomely rewarded for the privilege. But why take the easy route when instead he could get involved in a dangerous mission with Unspeakable Harry Potter (who also happens to be Draco's... well, he's something, isn't he?)

Unseen by astolat (M, 11k)

When he wasn’t wearing it, he got jumpy, always waiting for someone to come at him wanting something—and now they did it even more urgently, if they ever saw him, because most of the time, nobody did.

Trouble, My Old Friend by Tepre (E, 21k)

Harry goes rogue investigating an illegal potion and ends up at Draco Malfoy's dodgy lab.

Nice Things by aideomai (M, 22k)

The first thing that happened was Theodore Nott came back from France.

Like Lightning at Your Fingertips by potterwatch (T, 43k)

The problem with living with another insomniac is, eventually, they find out you’re one, too. When Harry and Draco return for their eighth year, they think they’ll see very little of each other. Then McGonagall assigns them to room together. And the castle starts breaking. And there’s that thing with Potter’s magic.

Meet Me at Midnight by @the-starryknight (T, 57k)

Harry was beginning to wonder if he’d ever make anything again when Malfoy stormed through the door of Harry’s furniture shop. Now Harry’s got an impossible Ministry commission to finish, and even less energy than ever to deal with his elusive muse. That is, until he stumbles upon the surreal and beautiful world of a mysterious fae creature…

Little Deaths and How to Avoid Them (or Draco Malfoy's Guide to Stop Dying and Start Living Instead) by nerakrose, dustmouth (T, 96k)

Malfoy is way too interested in coroner reports for somebody who's definitely not looking for ways to die, Harry wants to be friends with him, and Ginny wants to break up with Harry.

[azrakaban]

[daddiesdrarryy]

Draco: Wow, this is odd. I’ve never seen you this dressed up before, Potter. Are you going on a date? Who’s the lucky person?

Harry: …

Harry: I forgot to ask you, didn’t I?
